Step-by-Step Instructions
- Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly; peel them if you prefer a smoother texture. Cut the potatoes into consistent 1 to 1.5 inch wedges or chunks for even cooking.
- Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for 30 to 60 minutes. Drain and pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss the drained potatoes to coat completely.
- Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet, avoiding overcrowding.
- Roast the potatoes in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes without flipping.
- After the first roasting phase, carefully flip the potatoes and pour broth around them. Continue roasting for an additional 25 to 35 minutes, flipping every 10 to 15 minutes.
- Check for doneness by ensuring the potatoes are fork-tender and golden brown. For extra crispiness, increase the temperature to 425°F (220°C) in the last 10 to 15 minutes.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes
Ensure potatoes are thoroughly dry before roasting for optimal crispiness. Avoid overcrowding on the baking sheet to prevent steaming.
